Choose Happy with Marie | Overthinking, Self-Doubt & Self-Trust

Have you ever had a quiet feeling that something more is calling you, but you immediately talk yourself out of it?

Life may look good from the outside, yet something inside feels unsettled. You find yourself thinking, “I don’t know what I want,” or wondering why you second-guess yourself every time you consider something new.

Sometimes self-doubt, overthinking, and people-pleasing can make it difficult to hear your own inner voice. We begin looking outside ourselves for approval instead of trusting the intuition that has been there all along.

In this episode, we explore the beliefs that can keep us from honoring our desires and reconnecting with the part of ourselves that already knows what matters.

Have you ever looked at your life and thought, “Everything is fine... so why do I still feel like something is missing?”

Maybe you’re the person everyone counts on. You remember the details, keep things moving, and show up for everyone else. But somewhere along the way, you’ve started wondering, “When did I stop making space for myself?” or “I don’t know what I want anymore.”

In this episode, we explore what may be underneath the self-doubt, overthinking, and people-pleasing that keep you disconnected from your own needs. Because learning to trust yourself begins with listening for the voice within—the one that knows what matters to you.

A conversation about self-trust, your inner voice, intuition, and remembering that your life matters too.

Some moments in life feel surprisingly quiet, and yet your mind is anything but quiet. You might find yourself sitting on a dock, walking by the water, or moving through a slow summer day and suddenly thinking, I don’t actually know what I want anymore.

Not what makes sense. Not what would make someone else happy. Just… what feels true for you.

Over time, it can become easier to consider everyone else’s needs, opinions, and expectations than to pause long enough to notice your own. And without realizing it, you start to lose touch with your inner voice.

In this episode, we explore what happens when you begin to return to yourself, and the simple question that gently opens the door again.

There are moments when saying yes feels easier than pausing long enough to ask what you actually want. A summer barbecue, a casual invitation, a simple plan that somehow doesn’t feel simple at all. And yet the answer comes out automatically—because disappointing someone can feel heavier than checking in with yourself.

People-pleasing can look like kindness on the outside, but underneath it often feels like disconnection from your own voice. You might find yourself second-guessing your choices or feeling guilty even when nothing is wrong.

In this episode, we explore what’s happening in those moments, why guilt shows up when you start choosing yourself, and what it looks like to gently rebuild trust with your own inner voice again.

If you’ve been wondering how to stop people-pleasing without losing yourself or hurting others, this conversation is for you.

Some days life looks fine on the outside, but inside you feel like you’re constantly second-guessing yourself, overthinking every decision, and wondering why you can’t just trust yourself. Maybe you catch yourself saying, “I don’t know what I want,” or replaying simple choices long after they’ve been made.

Overthinking can start to feel like your default setting, especially when self-doubt and people-pleasing have shaped how you move through the world. It can feel like your inner voice is getting quieter, while everything else gets louder.

In this episode, we gently explore what’s actually happening underneath overthinking, why it shows up even in calm seasons of life, and what it might be revealing about your relationship with yourself.

If you’ve been trying to “figure it out” but mostly feel stuck in your head, this conversation is for you.

Cheers,

You’re sitting in a life that looks fine from the outside, but something inside feels quietly off. You tell yourself you should feel more settled, more grateful, more like you have it all together—but instead you find yourself thinking, I don’t trust myself, I overthink everything, or I don’t even know what I want anymore.

This is where self-doubt often hides—not in crisis, but in the subtle distance between your outer life and your inner voice. Over time, people-pleasing, responsibility, and simply keeping life moving can make it harder to hear your own intuition and trust yourself in the small, everyday moments.

In this episode of Choose Happy With Marie, we gently explore what it means to feel disconnected from yourself even when nothing is wrong, and what begins to shift when you start listening inward again.

Have you ever looked at your life and thought, “Everything is fine… so why do I feel disconnected from myself?”

You’re showing up. You’re handling what needs to be done and caring for the people around you. And yet, underneath it all, there’s a feeling that something is missing.

Maybe you find yourself thinking, “I don’t trust myself,” or “I overthink everything.”

Maybe you’ve spent so much time people-pleasing, listening to outside opinions, or second-guessing your choices that it feels harder to hear your own inner voice.

In this episode, we explore what can happen when we begin reconnecting with ourselves again — and what it means to start trusting yourself, your intuition, and the quiet wisdom that has been there all along.

Cheers,

There are moments in your day that barely register when they happen. A quick response. A small yes. A lunch break that shifts before you’ve had a chance to check in with yourself.

Nothing about it feels significant in the moment.

And yet later, there’s often a subtle awareness… that you moved through something without really staying with yourself inside it.

This episode stays close to that experience—not to analyse it, but to recognise it. Because the shift doesn’t usually begin when life slows down. It begins when you start noticing yourself a little earlier than you used to.

Not perfectly. Not all the time. Just enough to feel the difference between reacting quickly… and staying with yourself long enough to choose.

And in that small space, something begins to change in how you move through your life.

Cheers,

Marie

Have you ever known exactly what you wanted… and then talked yourself out of it? You were going to say "no". Or speak up. Or choose what actually felt right for you. And then, almost without noticing, you started second-guessing yourself. If you've ever thought, I knew I should have trusted my gut, this episode will feel familiar. We’re exploring those small everyday moments where you stop listening to yourself, why overthinking gets louder than your inner knowing, and how self-trust begins when you learn to stay with what you already know.

Cheers,

There’s a moment that happens every day that most people never really notice.

Someone asks you something — a favor, a plan, a request — and before you’ve even checked in with yourself, you’ve already said yes.

Not because it feels aligned. Not because you’ve chosen it. But because it’s faster, easier, and keeps everything moving smoothly.

And over time, these small moments start to add up in ways you don’t immediately see. You can end up feeling tired, stretched, or slightly disconnected from yourself — without being able to point to one clear reason why.

What’s really happening isn’t about overcommitment. It’s about a pattern of not pausing long enough to include yourself in your own decisions.

In this episode, we slow that moment down and bring awareness to what changes when you begin to stay with yourself before you respond.

Cheers,

Marie
